 So, no data to back any of this up? No dynos to show it’s not just a big air restriction. Just “people report x and y”. Hmmmm Reminds me of this guy https://www.tornadoair.com/ |

This is the wishy-washy part: "Air Flow Straightener: The Debris Screen also functions as an air flow straightener, making the flow thru the induction tubing more laminar, smoother, and faster. Many report smoother idle and crisper throttle response." The same thing kids say after changing their oil or performing some other insignificant and unrelated maintenance. 928 was just smart enough not to say faster and smoother airflow = better MPG or more power. It'd still be nice to see an after dyno to make sure it's not just a restriction. Surely they did dyno it and chose not to post the results. |
